It's another game week for Ohio State football, and that means that we got to hear from head coach Ryan Day as the Buckeyes prepare to host Illinois for its first Big Ten game of the year. Day meets with reporters every Tuesday of a game week, so he did so again to reflect on last Saturday's game against Kent State and look ahead to the game vs. the Illini.

Day stepped behind the podium and fielded a myriad of questions about Julian Sayin's play, what he's seen from the running backs, efforts to improve in short-yardage situations, and more.

In case you didn't get a chance to hear all of Day's comments, we've got the entire press conference in its entirety (about 27 minutes) for your consumption below.

Ohio State and Illinois are scheduled to kick off at Noon ET as part of Fox's Big Noon game, and we'll be here before, during, and after for all the coverage you crave.
